Description: This is a very unusual item in our Flea Market - a single print taken from the full set of Hiroshige's famous Tokaido designs published in Meiji 39 (1906) by Fujisawa Mankado, in Kyoto.

This is identical to the set of 55 prints that was introduced and described by Dave in one of the David's Choice video presentations on YouTube, and then included in the Mokuhankan Collection online.

[On previous occasions, we have obtained full sets of these prints for our Market, but this time were 'disappointed' to find that the set we had purchased was broken and incomplete. But this gives us the unusual opportunity to offer some of these prints singly.]

Condition: the print is toned with age (it is 116 years old!) and slightly soiled, but overall it is in good condition. The print was mounted (by the original publisher) to a stiff postcard ready for mailing.

Mishima

There is brush hair remaining at the center bottom of this print.
